Punjab Economic Opportunities Program-Livestock Component: A Policy Note

Abstract

The Punjab Economic Opportunities Program (PEOP) is the flagship poverty alleviation initiative taken by the Government of Punjab to address the very high incidence of poverty in the districts of Bahawalpur, Bahawalnagar, Lodhran and Muzaffargarh in Southern Punjab. This briefing outlines a survey of supply side providers to identify constraints to raising household incomes in livestock sector, identify gaps in public and private provision and to design and test interventions, like an asset transfer program, which carry significant potential to impact household income levels.
